I'm trying to design a web server where users can login, initiate long
running processes on uploaded files, monitor the progress via a web page and
download some results when the process has finished.
My first attempt was to do the file processing in the servlet, but the
browser timed out eventually! I appreciate this is not the way to solve it!
I was wondering if there is a common mechanism for doing this sort of thing
within a Tomcat server? Are any libraries available?
Thanks for any help.
